MAIN Travel Camping Campgrounds Kentucky Campgrounds

Whether hooking up in rv parks, or sleeping under the stars in tent campgrounds and cabins, you'll find unbridled opportunities for communing with nature in Kentucky.

Today best known to travelers as home to blue grass music, horses, and the Kentucky Derby, it comes as no surprise that Kentucky is big on the outdoors.

There are two dozen state parks throughout Kentucky with public access to a variety of campgrounds, along with privately-owned rv and tent camping sites.

If riding is your thing (or you want to learn how) explore the trails and pitch your tent at one of the state’s many horse camps.

Hiking, biking, and exploring are also on a menu of activities at wilderness areas and national parks -- such as Mammoth Cave, and Land Between the Lakes -- where backcountry camping vies in popularity with full-service campsites.
